'Authentic style' Mexican Rice

If you like the rice served in authentic mexican restaurants, you will love this dish. It is a cheap and easy side to make and goes well with any mexican meal. If I have leftovers, I sometimes reheat them in a skillet with taco-seasoned ground beef or soy crumbles and beans to make a cheap and filling second meal.


'Authentic style' Mexican Rice
-------------------------------
1 tbsp. oil
2 tbsp. chopped onion
1 & 1/2 cups uncooked white rice (NOT instant)
2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup water
1 & 1/4 cups salsa

Heat oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Stir in onion, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Mix rice into skillet, stirring often. When rice begins to brown, stir in chicken broth, water and salsa. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes, until liquid has been absorbed and rice is done. Makes 4-6 servings.
